Having recently fled Chinese political persecution, a HongKonger activist is trying to rebuild his life in the United States, but a visit from his ex-boyfriend rekindles unresolved feelings and threatens to derail his plans.
The short film captures the memory of an apartment and its surroundings: a young adult man lives his daily life, a journalist interviews a retired novelist who grapples with the idea of the end of the world, and two young boys searching for portals. Three storylines intertwine as the film progresses.
Against the erosion of culture in Hong Kong, a Hong Konger filmmaker questions why a 1.5-generation Hong Konger-American has decided to spread their hometown’s culture by building the only operational Hong Kong taxi in the United States.
